2 Teams I see declining, Florida and New Jersey, Florida because of the following reasons
1. There entire division underachieved last year
2. There entire division will not underachieve this year
3, The Caps and Canes made moves to improve this summer
4. The Panthers will be 1 year wonders
New Jersey because of the ? on where the offense will come from beside Kovalchuk and can Brodeur and Hedberg carry the load in net considering there ages. |

TOR will finish last in NE division. will draft in bottom 3, unless BB screws it up by taking on a ridiculous contract (ie loungo), or trading their 1st rd pick in a lateral move done out of desperation (ie b. ryan).
even though some of the teams mentioned in the blog are 'declining', they are all still better than TOR. most notable improved team is CAR. MTL is be better as well... |

IF Burke wants to improve and go for the playoffs, Thomas should be an option, but I dont care either way.
I would be fine going into the season the way we are, unless we can dump the KomiLombConolol monster.
Re-asses after the 15 game mark what team we have and add/dump accordingly. |

Mike Augello: Declining Playoff Teams Reason For Hope - mikeinbuffalo
The teams that declined didn't decline enough to fall to where the Leafs are. More importantly, the Leafs haven't done enough to rise up high enough. I don't see the reason for hope unless that hope is unrealistic and misplaced. |

Tim Thomas? The ultra right wing American conservative play in Toronto, Ontario, Canada? I wouldn't bet on it. |

I completely agree. I also think that is your best option as well. It would take a lot to get him though and this is his contract year no? |

You would hope that people learn from their mistakes but I suppose that too is misplaced hope. |

that being said: buff will do better this season. 6-9
tampa bay: still bad D and G - good forwards, will suck this year. 10-13
winnipeg: 8-11 finish
Toronto: bit better, 7-10 finish
islanders will suck - 13-15
montreal will be better for sure, but not much better 7-10 finish
thats my assessment, for what its worth. |

It could just be a rental. This is his last year under contract right?
I know I could look it up, but I'm being lazy |

Harding is their back up and is there future #1, backstrom has 1 year left.
dunno what it would cost, not as much as you may think though. |
